Floyd Reifer has replaced Richard Pybus as West Indies' coach just weeks ahead of the World Cup.

Reifer, who was briefly captain of West Indies in 2009, has been appointed to the role in an interim capacity following a review of West Indies' coaching and selection policies led by newly-elected Cricket West Indies (CWI) president, Ricky Skerritt.

The entire West Indies selection panel has also been dismissed. Courtney Browne, who had been a selector since 2013 and head selector since 2016, has been sacked with Robert Haynes, who played eight ODIs for West Indies between 1989 and 1991, appointed as interim head selector in his place.

"We have found it necessary to immediately adjust our selection policy to become more open, inclusive, and player-centric," Skerritt said. "I am therefore pleased to confirm that we have terminated the old embedded selection policy which secretly, but actively, victimized some players and banished them from selection consideration."

While Pybus was only appointed to the role of interim head coach in January and was at the helm when West Indies recently defeated England in a Test series, his dismissal is no surprise. He had ruffled many feathers during his time as West Indies' director of cricket - University of West Indies vice-chancellor Sir Hilary Beckles recently described Pybus' decision to shut down the West Indies' high-performance centre in Barbados as "deeply troubling" and "an act of vandalism" - and was seen as closely aligned to former CWI president, Dave Cameron.

Indeed, it is understood that despite Jimmy Adams, West Indies' director of cricket, not including Pybus' name among a not so shortlist of 11 suitable candidates for the interim position in December, Cameron decided to appoint him anyway.

West Indies batsman Nicholas Pooran has been banned from four T20Is after being found guilty of attempting to change the condition of the ball during West Indies' third ODI against Afghanistan on Monday.

Pooran admitted the charge, which deals with a breach of level 3 of the ICC's Code of Conduct, and accepted the sanction proposed by match referee Chris Broad. He had violated Article 2.14 of the code, which relates to "changing the condition of the ball" after video footage showed him scratching the surface of the ball with his thumbnail.

Shimron Hetmyer, Darren Bravo and Keemo Paul have decided not to tour the UK.


West Indies squad in full: Jason Holder (captain), Jermaine Blackwood, Nkrumah Bonner, Kraigg Brathwaite, Shamarh Brooks, John Campbell, Roston Chase, Rahkeem Cornwall, Shane Dowrich, Chemar Holder, Shai Hope, Alzarri Joseph, Raymon Reifer, Kemar Roach

Reserve players: Sunil Ambris, Joshua da Silva, Shannon Gabriel, Keon Harding, Kyle Mayers, Preston McSween, Marquino Mindley, Shane Moseley, Anderson Phillip, Oshane Thomas, Jomel Warrican

West Indies have said their choices won't impact future selection.

I suppose the players who don't want to tour lose the chance to audition for a possible county contract.

A bit surprised Gabriel is only a back up. And that Blackwood is back after being discarded.
I always say that everybody's right.

Marlon Samuels, the West Indies batsman who top-scored in both of their World T20 final victories, has retired from professional cricket.

Johnny Grave, the Cricket West Indies chief executive, confirmed to ESPNcricinfo that Samuels had told CWI of his retirement in June, having last played in December 2018.

While Samuels' career ends with underwhelming batting averages, he was always a man for the big occasion, as he proved in both of West Indies' World T20 wins.
